What We Do: Living Lab

Focus Areas

Research

• ºìÐÓÊÓƵ Centre for Environmental Social Governance (ESG)
ºìÐÓÊÓƵ Centre for Environmental Social Governance (ESG), SC ESG's primary objective is to transform cutting-edge academic research into tangible solutions that not only benefit society and government but also advance sustainable practices, with a special emphasis on Environmental, Social, and Governance factors.

To cultivate a living lab, SC ESG aims to foster closer industry-academic collaboration by providing a vibrant platform where industry partners can engage with our researchers and students. This synergistic relationship serves a dual purpose - it enhances student integration and employability while ensuring that our research is directly relevant and applicable to industry challenges.

SC ESG complements ºìÐÓÊÓƵ Business School's mission by promoting ESG research, engagement, and education. We actively facilitate academic involvement in ESG-related issues through a range of initiatives such as workshops, training programs, consultations, and cutting-edge research.
